Ecclesiastes 9:9-11 Flashcards
9
Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest all the days of the life of thy vanity, which he hath given thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity: for that is thy portion in this life, and in thy labour which thou takest under the sun.
A: If you going to be doing something that don’t amount to nothing at least do something thats going to make you happy.
Go to the movies, Pillow fight, go to the zoo, tic tac toe (if you not too competitive, start argument) have fun!
Y: …when you can have a good time
thats why as a Nation we try to do that, So many events, it would be easier not to, but we want to promote enjoyment of one another’s company at an event getting to know one another as a Nation.
And its a shame when you don’t make these things, you supposed to try and make these things, you supposed to try and get every event you can have under your belt for you to have a good time with your family
because there is so much hell in this world it wont be a lot of time to do those things

I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.
Some people think the only ones able to get things done are the ones in position.
“They able to do it faster than me, they have the finances to get it done, I can’t do it, he has same idea he will get it done.”
Then guess what? he will get it done and not You
Its not given to the Swift
you not supposed to be looking at who is at the finish line already

I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.
The people that its nothing for them to accomplish what you tryna accomplish
so hard for you to do it but so easy for them
So you can win that battle
You can get into that same business they in strong and they will become admirers of yours because you done exceeded them and excelled.
